per the AP:

P.J. Fleck turned 40 last year, still one of the youngest major college football coaches in the country entering his fifth season at Minnesota.

This year, Fleck has one of the oldest teams.

The Gophers have a bounty of experience returning, due to the NCAA’s decision not to count the pandemic-altered 2020 season against anyone’s eligibility limit. There’s a feeling of unfinished business, too, after the virus-related limitations and on-field struggles last year. They’re aiming anew to build off the 11-2 season they enjoyed in 2019.

“You want to leave things better than it came in as,” running back Mo Ibrahim said. “I felt like that was a big deal for me. It’s just something that I wanted to do.”


Go Gophers!!
 

Fairly straight-forward look at the team. Nothing earth-shattering.

Sanford does talk about using Mo more as a receiver.

Other than that, mostly a rundown of the returning players at most positions. didn't say much about the defensive secondary or TE's.
